Abstract:

<strong>Background:</strong> The by-products of banana and plantain shrubs, especially banana blossom (banana male bud) are usually thrown away by producers in plantations, and produce important quantities of post harvest waste. The nutritional composition of three varieties of banana and plantain blossomsgrown in Cameroon; dessert banana (Musa AAA), plantain (Musa AAB) and cooking banana (Musa ABB), was assessed for their potential applications.     <strong>Methods:</strong> The contents in water, ash, lipids, protids, carbohydrates and crude fibres wer

Abstract:

Banana blossoms are rich in fiber and nutrients and are a popular plant-based, vegan alternative to fish. However undesirable browning, usually visible at the peduncle cut-end, negatively impacts consumer acceptability of banana blossoms. The aim of this work was to develop safe alternatives to prevent browning in banana blossoms. First, the activities of primary enzymes associated with tissue browning, i.e., polyphenol oxidase (PPO), peroxidase (POD) and phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), were assayed. Our data showed that PPO and POD were the key enzymes responsible for blossom browning as t

Abstract:

The issue of food security has emerged as a significant concern, attributed to diminishing resources and extensive waste generation within the agricultural sector. An illustration of this is the fact that not all components of fruits and vegetables are utilized by consumers, resulting in substantial quantities of food wastage globally. Despite progress, a considerable quantity of agricultural remains of banana plant such as banana blossoms and leaves, are currently not fully utilized, presenting possibilities for the creation of effective goods.

Banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) is one of the world’s invasive species. Banana aphid (Pentalonia nigronervosa) is found in all banana producing areas and it is the insect pest known to transmit BBTV causing banana bunchy top disease (BBTD) in bananas and plantains (Musa spp.) and can cause a significant yield loss of up to 100% in severe cases. Controlling the spread of BBTD has been very challenging since there is no known endogenous gene in the Musa germplasm that could confer resistance to BBTV. Excessive dependence on insecticides for disease control is detrimental to the environment and of

It is important to understand the nutritional factors for breastfeeding mothers because their nutritional needs must be increased to enhance breast milk production. One effort to boost breast milk production is through the consumption of foods that influence lactation, such as banana blossom preparations. The dietary fiber in banana blossoms is ben

Unripe Cardaba banana and plantain bunches were produced into flour separately. The drying kinetics of the slices (sun, 50°C and 70°C) with and without blanching were monitored. The rehydration capacities of the slices at room temperature, 45°C, 75°C and 95°C were determined.

Antioxidants are substances that can delay, slow down and prevent the oxidation process or neutralize free radicals. Plantain peel contains several metabolite compounds that have the potential to have antioxidant activity such as saponins, polyphenols and tannins, flavonoids and terpenoids. Banana peel extract has high antioxidant activity. The methanol extract of banana peels was higher in total flavonoids and phenolics compared to the n-hexane

Fish is part of the diet which is a source of animal protein which is very beneficial for health. To meet the availability of fish-based food, it can be processed into various processed products, one of which is shredded fish. Shredded fish still has a drawback, such as the low fiber content. To enrich the fiber content of shredded fish, fortification with banana blossoms can be an alternative. The process of making shredded fish does not yet have a standard because many methods and spices are added, so there are variations in the types and amounts of spices used. This causes the quality of sh

<strong>Introduction</strong> The plantain, often known as the banana, is a large herbaceous plant native to the South Pacific. The plant itself has a slightly confusing taxonomic classification. In general, "banana" refers to plants that produce a sweeter variety of fruit commonly consumed raw, such as the "desert bananas" which account for most of the fruits consumed in the United States or Europe. In contrast, "plantain" commonly refers to starchier fruits that need to be cooked before eating. Plantains account for the majority of bananas consumed as
